Description RaitaroH 2018-11-04 10:37:53 UTC 
Right now it is possible to have the toolbar, then the places, then everything else. I think it can save some vertical space to have the toolbar vertical, but I can only place it to the left of the places panel which I don't like that much. It adds some empty space at the bottom and looks less clean. Doing it the other way around, having places > toolbar > everything else, I think looks a lot better.

Operating System: KDE neon 5.14
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.2

This is going to sound stupid... but how to you make the toolbar vertical and relocate it? It never even occurred to me that this was possible, and now that I know it is, I can't figure out how to do it.

QMainWindow enforces this specific order. See image at http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmainwindow.html#details

Wow, you don't know about it? 

Right click on the toolbar/places. Uncheck lock. You will get a handle at the top. Now you can move it.

And I assume nothing can be done right?

Well it would require a Qt patch. Anything's possible. :)

So do you accept the challenge? :0

LOL probably not, at least not soon. Contributing to Qt is something that's pretty far beyond me at the moment.
